A Day Before Chunin Exam;
"Naruto, are you just going to leave that person there?" Minato asked, completely confused by Naruto's motives.
He just saved a ninja from the village, but instead of taking him to the hospital, he closed the wounds and threw him near the root's headquarters.
Since it was below the ground, he placed that man near the building, not underground.
"Yes, Dad!"
At this moment, Naruto was entering the secret chamber where the bodies of the Uchiha clan were buried.
Because their eyes were taken by Danzo and Obito, the Hokage had buried them in a secret chamber next to the graveyard.
This was done to make sure nobody would find out about their bodies even if they did dig their graves.
That's why the bodies of the members of the Uchiha clan weren't present in the Fourth Great Ninja War.
Kabuto couldn't find their bodies.
Although there were a lot of Sharingan in Obito's possession, even Kabuto would hesitate to waste a Sharingan to bring down Impure Reincarnation bodies.
"But, why?"
Kushina confusedly asked.
On the other hand, Minato's eyes narrowed for a moment before they widened in surprise.
"I see. That guy is Gekko Hayate. If I remember correctly, he is the one who mastered Transparency Jutsu, invented by Jiraiya Sensei."
"According to his condition, he will wake up tomorrow. That Sealing Jutsu you used will also expire tomorrow."
Hearing that, Kushina also understood his intentions, and Naruto replied.
"Yes, my purpose for killing those two elders isn't out of hatred. Since I am doing this to trick Danzo, I need to complete it to perfection."
"Gekko Hayate died before the invasion. I didn't remember it before. It's a good thing that I found him on time."
"He won't be that useful in the invasion, so having him as a witness for Danzo's killing would be a good choice."
"With Yamanaka's Mind Transfer Jutsu, they will find the proof of Danzo's action."
Minato got solemn as he said.
"This will completely change the future. Not because of the elders' death but due to Danzo's renegade."
"Even if he doesn't want to, he will have no choice but to leave the village under such conditions."
"But this also means you have to be extremely careful with your actions. You have to perform Danzo as clearly as possible while also using Wind Release."
Naruto released a deep breath and said.
"Don't worry, Dad! I once used Transformation Jutsu with Gamabunta to become Nine-Tails to hold Shukaku down."
"I might not be confident about Clone Jutsu, but I am absolutely confident about Transformation Jutsu."
Naruto replied as he started opening the coffins of Sasuke's parents. He didn't touch other coffins.
He took out a small knife and cut their skin and bones. After taking those parts out, he carefully closed the coffins and reactivated the Sealing Jutsu.
This Sealing Jutsu was a special Jutsu used to keep their bodies preserved. This was generally done for high-level ninjas.
While Mikoto wasn't a high-level ninja, she was still the wife of Fugaku.
So, both of their bodies were preserved quite well using this Sealing Jutsu.
There was also another point of using this Sealing Jutsu.
If these coffins were opened without deactivating the Sealing Jutsu, it would sound an alarm.
As for their eyes, they weren't there.
Either Danzo got them, or Itachi took them.
No matter what, all of the Uchiha who awakened Sharingan didn't have Sharingan.
After getting what he needed, Naruto went further away from Konoha Village.
After reaching a certain distance, he opened the scroll and made a tiger seal.
[Release]
Suddenly, the smoke appeared, and six white plant-like bodies appeared above the seal.
These were White Zetsu bodies.
Since they were present, Naruto wasn't just going to sacrifice a human for this Jutsu.
Especially since finding them was as easy as blinking an eye.
There were several of them around the village. But since he didn't want to startle Obito yet, he only targeted six of them.
What's surprising about their presence was how they were keeping an eye on the village's activities from underground.
This was done in a way that their Chakra had merged with the Chakra of the forest of Death.
That's why even though there was a Barrier around the village, they couldn't be detected.
That's also why there were so many of them.
Unlike other villages, Konoha at least had a good barrier.
If they move, their Chakra would be detected by the barrier. Although ninjas wouldn't find them and just take them as an error.
If that happened continuously, they were bound to get suspicious. That's why the village was surrounded by these bodies instead of one or two.
Mayfly Technique was one Jutsu that allowed it to travel anywhere it wished. Unlike Konoha, most villages didn't have a powerful barrier.
So, just using the Mayfly Technique allowed the White Zetsu infiltrate any other villages.
"I can't believe there were so many of these in the village. Why didn't I sense them before?" Kushina grumbled as she watched Naruto take out those beings.
"Do you think Konoha still has a high-level sensor like you and Mito? When Mito was alive, I bet Madara didn't dare to let a single Zetsu go near the village."
"It should be when you become Jinchuriki that these beings started infiltrating the village."
Kurama sneered as he spoke.
Minato nodded his head.
"That explains why Madara was able to target Obito but not others. By the time Obito joined the academy, Mito-sama was already dead."
"Her death triggered an opportunity for Madara to start his plan. Considering Obito's situation, I think Madara had made a well-crafted plan."
"And for such a plan to succeed, he needed to find the correct person. So, Obito can't be a random decision."
"He must have been watching Obito from his early age and turned his kindness to darkness."
When Minato said that, he couldn't help but clench his fist.
After all, Obito was his student.
And that same student made his son an orphan. But Minato couldn't blame Obito, not out of compassion.
But simply because he chose to die with Kushina.
